I just counted up all the worlds in the Sims 2, 3, and 4 and then sorted then by continent. It's in my twitter thread with lots of screen shots:

I don't know how to embed my twitter here, sorry! But given that's there's been 30+ American, 9 European, 3 East Asian, 3 tropical islands, 2 alien, and only 1 South American and 1 Egyptian worlds, what worlds do you think we need next?

Egypt
Scandinavia
A world for Seasons
Even with the international countries that are represented, it's very much an American idea of it too. Henford on Bagley doesn't even vaguely look like 99% of England, it's very much an American idea of the country. Majority of England is big urban towns with very little green space...
The Mediterranean, Middle East, India, Africa, etc still aren't represented at all which is so disappointing. I hope we'll see something of them at some point
Would be nice to have some world inspired from India, with temples, festivals, a slum neighbourhood, washing in rivers, a sewing/cloth making skill maybe, some rich palace and villas, and bangra dancing. And lots of vegan dishes.
I also love Sims 4 Brindleton Bay, Forgotten Falls, Glimmerbrook, Henford, Mt. K, Savadora, Strangerville, Sulani & Windenburg.
Idk if turkey is in southern Europe but I have watched a few Turkish series on Netflix and the culture and vibe is just so nice idk what word to explain it but I think it would be a really cool world to get. It makes me think about the amount of diverse places and worlds we could get in the sims but we keep getting boring similar American worlds and idk I always get excited about different cultures in the sims because it means I can think of new architecture styles, new types of families and sims to make, new food and etc. Also love to see ppl from that culture getting excited and sharing the history behind a certain reference or inspiration in the game. It's a nice way to learn more about other places in the world.

I wouldn’t say “aren’t represented AT ALL”.
Being a transcontinental country Egypt is partly African and partly Asian.
The Sims 3 world Monte Vista is inspired by Tuscany, which is an area in Italy which is a country in the Mediterranean Region would you believe it.
Premium game play items include a pizza oven thingie plus a Mediterranean country market and there’s also that Venetian Gondola Lurv lot. That stuff may be separate, I can’t remember, but it is very Italian indeed.
Monte Vista is one of my favorite worlds. I’ve grown many vineyards there and bottled great quantities of fine wine. I mean nectar. 🍷
Or maybe even some sort of time travel world where we can go back to ancient China, Feudal Japan, or Medieval Europe and have some adventures there (that would be EPIC!). As long as we can build there and design things how we want. I have a lot of fantasy games I want to play and having more fantasy worlds would help a lot!
